Thanks guys. I am really happy about it. I am not sure if or when I will be able to do better with my current set up. I have very rarely experienced those seeing conditions in Adelaide. The transparency was very good and, looking at the AVI again, there is only a very faint shimmer of the image.

The AVI was captured at 5.52pm, when it was still daylight. I have noticed that there is a window of opportunity for imaging the Moon just before dusk. During that time there are calmer seeing conditions. It doesn't last long. As soon as it becomes dark, the seeing deteriorates. I have also experienced similar conditions before sunrise.

Cheers,

Eric
